It can only send exactly one id. The server then either +agrees to reuse the session or it starts a full handshake (to create a new +session). + +A server will lookup up the session in its internal session storage. If the +session is not found in internal storage or lookups for the internal storage +have been deactivated (SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP), the server will try +the external storage if available. + +Since a client may try to reuse a session intended for use in a different +context, the session id context must be set by the server (see +L<SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context(3)|SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context(3)>). + +The following session cache modes and modifiers are available: + +=over 4 + +=item SSL_SESS_CACHE_OFF + +No session caching for client or server takes place. + +=item SSL_SESS_CACHE_CLIENT + +Client sessions are added to the session cache. As there is no reliable way +for the OpenSSL library to know whether a session should be reused or which +session to choose (due to the abstract BIO layer the SSL engine does not +have details about the connection), the application must select the session +to be reused by using the L<SSL_set_session(3)|SSL_set_session(3)> +function. This option is not activated by default. + +=item SSL_SESS_CACHE_SERVER + +Server sessions are added to the session cache. When a client proposes a +session to be reused, the server looks for the corresponding session in (first) +the internal session cache (unless SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP is set), +then (second) in the external cache if available. If the session is found, the +server will try to reuse the session. This is the default. + +=item SSL_SESS_CACHE_BOTH + +Enable both SSL_SESS_CACHE_CLIENT and SSL_SESS_CACHE_SERVER at the same time. + +=item SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_AUTO_CLEAR + +Normally the session cache is checked for expired sessions every +255 connections using the +L<SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(3)|SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(3)> function. Since +this may lead to a delay which cannot be controlled, the automatic +flushing may be disabled and +L<SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(3)|SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(3)> can be called +explicitly by the application. + +=item SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP + +By setting this flag, session-resume operations in an SSL/TLS server will not +automatically look up sessions in the internal cache, even if sessions are +automatically stored there. If external session caching callbacks are in use, +this flag guarantees that all lookups are directed to the external cache. +As automatic lookup only applies for SSL/TLS servers, the flag has no effect on +clients. + +=item SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE + +Depending on the presence of SSL_SESS_CACHE_CLIENT and/or SSL_SESS_CACHE_SERVER, +sessions negotiated in an SSL/TLS handshake may be cached for possible reuse. +Normally a new session is added to the internal cache as well as any external +session caching (callback) that is configured for the SSL_CTX. This flag will +prevent sessions being stored in the internal cache (though the application can +add them manually using L<SSL_CTX_add_session(3)|SSL_CTX_add_session(3)>). Note: +in any SSL/TLS servers where external caching is configured, any successful +session lookups in the external cache (ie. for session-resume requests) would +normally be copied into the local cache before processing continues - this flag +prevents these additions to the internal cache as well. + +=item SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL + +Enable both SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP and +SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE at the same time. + + +=back + +The default mode is SSL_SESS_CACHE_SERVER. + +=head1 RETURN VALUES + +SSL_CTX_set_session_cache_mode() returns the previously set cache mode. + +SSL_CTX_get_session_cache_mode() returns the currently set cache mode. + + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +L<ssl(3)|ssl(3)>, L<SSL_set_session(3)|SSL_set_session(3)>, +L<SSL_session_reused(3)|SSL_session_reused(3)>, +L<SSL_CTX_add_session(3)|SSL_CTX_add_session(3)>, +L<SSL_CTX_sess_number(3)|SSL_CTX_sess_number(3)>, +L<SSL_CTX_sess_set_cache_size(3)|SSL_CTX_sess_set_cache_size(3)>, +L<SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb(3)|SSL_CTX_sess_set_get_cb(3)>, +L<SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context(3)|SSL_CTX_set_session_id_context(3)>, +L<SSL_CTX_set_timeout(3)|SSL_CTX_set_timeout(3)>, +L<SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(3)|SSL_CTX_flush_sessions(3)> + +=head1 HISTORY + +SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE and SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL +were introduced in OpenSSL 0.9.6h. + +=cut |
